Its Founder, LeAnna Miller, has made it her mission to create art thru the community. LeAnna’s primary medium for her art is through the lens of a salon owner and entrepreneur celebrating over 30 years of experience in the hair industry. LeAnna is also an accomplished musician and full-time student at Coletrain Music Academy where she continues to grow and inspire her peers, teachers, friends, and clients through her vulnerable songwriting, authentic performances, and fierce support of music education.

We are so fortunate to have families like Russ & Diane Rozek in our community. The Rozek family are champions of the arts and music education in Chaffee County and we are so grateful for their continued support. This generous sponsorship allowed us to purchase music stands, tuners, and notebooks for Camp Coletrain.

291 Colorado Whiskey is a globally acclaimed, small-batch whiskey nestled in the shadow of Pikes Peak. Located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Michael Myers, a former New York City fashion and beauty photographer, with a love of whiskey and passion for the old west, aims to replicate the taste, smell and folklore of that time, to create a one of a kind, bold and beautiful, Colorado Whiskey.

Myers, no stranger to whiskey or the West, set out to create a flagship whiskey that evoked the Wild West. He grew up on rural family farms in Georgia and Tennessee, across a countryside defined by rolling hills, horses, Jack Daniels and George Dickel. For decades since then, he carried with him an iconic vision of walking into an old west bar, saying “give me a whiskey”, and the bartender slamming down a bottle– that bottle would be 291 Colorado Whiskey.
